We're all concentrating on Rewind being alive and he's shocked at Skids and Nightbeat being alive. And Megatron being an Autobot and Nautica being female.

That's what I'm thinking. Can't wait to see this issue.

 

Suddenly the 17th September feels a very long way away...

 

I love Ravage this important how. I guess nobody informed that Rewind is dead from the LL1.

 

Yep, sounds spot on to me.

 

Not gonna lie... I got a bit giddy as soon as Rewind got up. I didn't realize how much I missed him... Also, he has a lot to catch up on. And to help us catch up on, doesn't he?

I wonder how the failed Quantum Jump let Crosscut finish his play earlier here. I guess that's why Swerve's is now an auditorium; someone helped him look for a suitable room to place a stage and they found the bar.

 

Yep, I think SPLIT's hit the nail on the head there.

I wonder though, there's every chance that whatever they do to restore the Lost Light – or rather their Lost Light to normal, that they'll be faced with having to lose Rewind, but also, seeing as Our Rewind is dead(?), would they be able to take him with them in the absence of another Rewind to disprove this one's existence, or is that too much of a copout? Whatever happens, I'm sure feels will be had.

I hope someone has an "OH SHIT! What about Bluestreak and the others?!" moment as they're planning to abandon ship and a mad dash to try and find them. I wonder where they could have ended up though. Phased back with their respective shuttles to the LLII's shuttle bay, minus the original launch crew members?

At least the wait isn't too long, huzzah!

 

Yep, rather than people randomly blundering around and grabbing the first rooms they find in the wake of the accident and Sparkeater alarm, Magnus would most probably have arranged an inspection of all the rooms and probably made people apply for the use of bigger communual spaces.

'So this big room here, has an engex dispenser, we've had applications from Swerve, who wants to turn it into "A bar, with booze, all the booze you could ever want!" and former senator Crosscut, who would like it to become a theatre where he can perform his own works. Crosscut's it is then.'

 

This season is such a mind fuck and I'm loving every panel of it  

 

Loving this season so far! Can't wait to find out what's on the data slug. Also, I wonder how Chromedome will react to Rewind being alive (When he comes back at least..)

 

Oh man, Rewind's face when he sees "Autobot" Megatron... priceless.

Also, for every time Nautica says "quantum", take a shot.

 

Damn it's strange seeing Megatron being this compasionate. No wonder Ravage was wondering if he'd been shadowplayed. But I think this is probably what Megatron was like before he turned to violence and became the ruthless conquerer we now know. I also wonder what Megs and Ravages reactions to seeing the DJD in action will be.

Poor Rewind. This is all so confusing and traumatic. And he may die again. Not that they've told him about the dying.

 

I think the well drawn consensuses that Rewind has quite a story to tell is well established. Poor fella. He's been one of my favourite characters too other than Drift. Missed him. Hope he's not killed off again.  

Agreed that after all that's happened Megatron is showing a more compassionate side we haven't seen too much before. But then he does happen to be captain (or co-captain if you ask Rodimus) with a personal stake at showing he truly means to be responsible and take care of the crew. Show that even monsters can change,

Would have been interesting to know just what was on the as dataslug that Chromedome was listening too. If, while he was playing it, there were visuals recorded as well as audio that Chrome missed.

One could theorize forever on the differences between the two time-frames. Apparently, as Nightbeat alluded to, the quantum leap accident never actually happened. Which would then mean the spark-eater never escaped, Red Alert never was alerted to Overlord's presence. Skids never joined the crew (or if he had was in a different manner).. Delpi was never visited. Or...yeah. Drum beats on. The dominoes keep falling in procession.

Interested in what is meant by "As unseen forces move in for the kill and old friends reveal their true colors, the AUTOBOTS realize that everything—everything—is a lie".
For that matter was the LL ghost ship on a different mission rather than to find the Knights?

Also interested to see if there are any ships around from our crew which held any of the members of the Circle of Light that tagged along to join Thunderclash's group. (They wouldn't have poofed. They weren't original members of the ship. They woulda been in the same catagory as Nightbeat, Getaaway, Skids & Co.)

And to think, the last warning on the don't list for the LL that had been missed was "For Cybertron's sake, do not open the coffin!" Following rules must be too advanced. Almost every single one on the list has been broken. But does make for good reading.  

 

James, y u do dis?

 

Actually, it was "Don't open the coffin, and for the sake of the Cybertronian race, please don't- kzzzzzk"

 

I love this series so much. And this issue's coming out on my birthday; woohoo!

 

Yes, looks awesome. More to talk about in 3 pages than a whole issue of RID  

This is a series I'll be re-reading into my 60's at least. It just hits so many nails on the head it's like Bob the Builder on speed...

 

And hopefully by the time the feels hit, you'll be too drunk to feel them in their original intensity.

Rewind... ;__; I have a violent, urgent need to just grab him up and hug him and not put him down because otherwise bad things will happen to him ;__;

James, CAN YOU NOT?!

I'm staying here in my fluffy blanket fort and not coming out... >_<;;

 

Best. Mental Image. Ever.

Booooooob the Builder! Can we fix it? Booooooob the Builder! kljhuvfolwihfplerjfwkifjllllllLLLLLLET'S WEAAAAAAVE!

 

The calm before the storm. I think the ugly times are a comin'....  

(though if it's only for one issue, I can hack it)

Oh man... ;___;
